Green Wave Energy Generator

This is an innovative technology to generate energy from the up and down motion of waves. Designed and Developed at University of British Columbia. 4 Engineering students from disciplines Mechanical,Integrated,and Engineering Physics were actively involved for 4 months.....from idea generation to final prototype testing phase.

This prototype a scaled version that makes 15 Watts of energy in 10 inch high waves, with further improvements its expected to make around 100 Watts, eventually powering homes at offshore,offgrid houses.

i love zupa grzybowa!

Hai is your technology operational ? I would like to know about it ....

[egn83b]

Forget the technology in the water. I want to go swimming in that pool all those waves look mezerizing and fun.

this is what i want to put in my machine

@AnubisEvalyna The long pipes were tested in Portugal and disintegrated few months after beeing deployed. Currently there are some enterprises developing a ball that is put in the ocean that works in two dimensions.

Probably they should be investigating new ways to save energy before they spend vast amounts of money. A case in point is that in 2005 the Government, Market Transformation Program had tests made on a new type of cleaner that employs Air Recycling Technology. The results show that it could save 1.5 Terawatt (1,500 Gigawatt) each year in the UK alone. Simply, by changing the type of cleaner we use in our homes. It was originally designed to remove health hazards inherent in the vacuum cleaner.

They allready have different sorts of these things in use in Europe, so you're both too late. ;)

We also got those very long pipes the float on the surface of the sea and generate energy.

we need some german ingeners on the job, i think because their country in off sea they dont develop this kind off tecnology.

If Americans don't get makinng this stuff for ourselves the Chinese will !

[mikefk01]

it's really good. but i don't understand on how doing is system work. the system is moved because to moviment wave. so the suspensions do that the energy generator is actived. this is all?. it's very innovator !!
